Nice going there Scott,
You guys must be over run with turkeys up there I'm anticapating taking a new to me 34" Ithaca 10 out there for turkeys as soon as I can find the time to spend some time in the woods. Congrats on another fine turkey, Stan |

Nice bird, Scott. Is your gun one of the 3 1/2” Ithaca’s? I have one, and it is a turkey thumper.

First rate, Scott.
And here I am sneakin around in AL-AZ with a HE Super Fox and LC Smith Long Range. The Smith has been quite the gun, finally fooling an old one here after two years. It's like a chess match with an old moss-back: a learning experience even after decades. Next year will mean a new/old shotgun: A 1920s Parker 3 in gun. The Eastern Wild Turkey is the king of wild fowl. B. Franklin was right. A noble bird with few peers. |
